COVID-19 has increased the demand for cutting edge music industry tech skills. While some have obtained formal training, many have learnt by trial and error and therefore require the tech knowledge and skills required to produce Hybrid (Virtual + In-Person) events. In addition to this, some operators are desirous of improving and upgrading their skills in line with international best practices. This programme is designed to satisfy the demand of both types of participants.
At the end of this course, learners should:
- Demonstrate how to set up, use and dismantle a performance-level PA system, without assistance.
- Manage and host live streams, interacting in real time with viewers.
- Plan and implement a logistics strategy for an event.
